Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、紫外線励起により発光を示す微粒子および、その製造方法である。
【0002】
【従来の技術及び発明が解決しようとする課題】
現在電子機器の表示装置としては、ブラウン管、液晶、プラズマまたは発光ダイオードなどが使用されている。これらは複雑で高価なため、より安価な表示装置が必要とされている。このためには、シリコンなど安価な素材を用いた発光材料の開発が不可欠である。一方、シリコンは微粒子にしないと発光を示さないという特性がある。
【0003】
従来、発光を示す結晶化した微粒子作製のためには、溶液からの析出あるいは化学蒸着法を用いる必要があった。
【0004】
これらいずれの工程でも、結晶化のためには微粒子の熱処理が必要であった。さらに、発光を示す粒子は粒径数nm以下のものであり、その粒径が波長に関係があるため、発光波長を選ぶためには粒径分布が狭い微粒子が必要で、そのために粒子の分級が必要であった。熱処理、分級はどちらも製造コストを押し上げる要因であった。
【0005】
本発明は、電子機器の表示装置に安価な発光材料が求められていることに着目し、熱処理や分級無しに発光する微粒子を作製することが技術的課題である。
【0006】

【0014】
例えば、イオンビームを、シリコンなどのターゲットに照射し、発生した高密度のプラズマを、ガス中または冷却した基板上で急冷することにより微粒子が作製される。
【0015】
【実施例】
本発明の具体的な実施例について図面に基づいて説明する。
【0016】
図1に示すように、室温に保持した真空チャンバー1中に、3Torrのヘリウムガス2を充填し,基板ホルダー3上に単結晶シリコン基板4を設置した。この基板ホルダー3には液体窒素5を導入し、マイナス10℃に冷却した。真空チャンバー1には単結晶シリコンターゲット6を設置し、これに水素イオンビーム7を照射することにより密度1018/cmの高密度プラズマ8が発生した。この高密度プラズマをヘリウムガス2と基板で急冷し、微粒子9を基板4上に堆積させた。
【0017】
